[Verse 1]
This is where I've got to draw the line
'Cause I refuse to let you think you can play with my mind
Always seems that you think that I'm blind
'Cause there's always certain times when you're hard to find
You're on the go, I'm on the go, we're on the go
I can't catch you no more, can't see you no more
And it no longer can be ignored
'Cause that once upon a time it was you I adored
You disappeared and left me here out in the cold
And the absence of you is hurting my soul
Didn't know that was an end of the road
It was so easy for you just to let it all go

[Chorus]
(And I refuse)
I refuse to have one more sleepless night
(I refuse)
I refuse to let a tear fall out my eye
(I refuse)
I refuse to continue to try
I felt like I would die or I could break down and cry

(And I refuse)
I refuse to let you walk back through that door
(I refuse)
I refuse to let you hurt me anymore
(And I refuse)
I refuse to continue to ignore
The fact I fell to the floor the day you walked out my door

[Post-Chorus]
(And I refuse)
No way I can take it baby
(I refuse) No way I can take it baby
(And I refuse) No way
But I refuse to take it anymore

[Verse 2]
Remember when I told you I could feel the change (Change)
You don't touch me the same (The same)
Nor hold me the same (The same)
Now I don't want you to take all the blame
'Cause I know I had those moments when I caused the pain
This back and forth, just like a war, with you and me
(With you and me)
See we both disagree, have we ever agreed?
This ain't nothing like I thought it would be
Was it all just a dream, was it ever in my reach?

[Chorus]
(And I refuse)
I refuse to have one more sleepless night
(I refuse)
I refuse to let a tear fall out my eye
(And I refuse)
I refuse to continue to try
I felt like I would die or I could break down and cry

(And I refuse)
I refuse to let you walk back through that door
(I refuse)
I refuse to let you hurt me any more
(And I refuse)
I refuse to continue to ignore
The fact I fell to the floor the day you walked out my door

[Bridge]
It was your way, or it was no way
And I couldn't live that way
It was our call, and then it was your call
'cause I gave you my all and all

[Chorus]
(And I refuse)
I refuse to have one more sleepless night
(I refuse)
I refuse to let a tear fall out my eye
(And I refuse)
I refuse to continue to try
I felt like I would die or I could break down and cry

(And I refuse)
I refuse to let you walk back through that door
(I refuse)
I refuse to let you hurt me any more
(And I refuse)
I refuse to continue to ignore
The fact I fell to the floor the day you walked out my door

[Post-Chorus]
No way I can take it baby
No way I can take it baby
No way
But I refuse to take it any more

No, no, no way I can take it baby
No, no, no way I can take it baby
No, no way
But I refuse to take it any more

[Outro]
(And I refuse)
(I refuse)
(And I refuse)

(And I refuse)
(I refuse)
(And I refuse)

Said I refuse to take it anymore
